Penis size is a sensitive issue for almost every man! In addition, many men heard stories about penis enlargement techniques and most of them are confused because they don’t know what to believe. Are these stories true or could it be that they are nothing more then myths and that’s all?
 
Penis-enlargement products and techniques aren't so difficult to find. Radio and television shows, men's magazines, and many internet sites are literally filled with commercials for pumps, pills, and exercises for the increasing the length and girth of penis.
 
All these companies that offer products for penis enlargement assume the every man:
  1. is afraid he has a small penis
  2. believes that the bigger penis he has- he would be a better lover
  3. would like to get a bigger penis practicing some safe exercises.

Research done in the past showed that more than 70 % of men have penises which size is between 5 and 7 inches when erected. A penis is considered small only if it measures less than 5 inches.

Most common penis enlargement techniques

There are many penis enlargement techniques and exercises, and only thing that man should do is to choose one. Supposedly, every single one of them is effective, because there is no serious scientific research that could validate any type of these techniques of enlargement. The companies that promote them rely only on testimonials!
They could be divided into two big groups: non-surgical and surgical methods!
Some of the most common non-surgical methods are:
  • Vacuum Pumps- These pumps work by forcing blood into the penile shaft through simple air suction. This probably sounds easy and reasonable!

    Possible complications- loss of feeling, impotence and damaged blood vessels
  • Medications and pills – Although, there are many commercials for so-called “miracle” pills that will make your penis grow in length and girth, every person should keep in mind that there is no FDA-approved medication for penis enhancement. The most common is definitely Viagra pill!

    Possible complications- There are no guarantees for what ingredients these pills contain so they could represent a serious health threat!
  • Weigh “lifting”– this method is about hanging small weights from the tip of man’s penis repeatedly over time. Although this method could seam a bit vigorous- many man claim that they managed to increase the size of their penises.

    Possible complications – many experts claim that hanging weight on the penis can result in stretch marks, lesions and decreased sensation in the penis
  • Supplements – There are some supplements on the market such as Vitalzym systemic enzyme which primary role is to help eat away up fibrosis in the spongy cavity and keep it away
  • Lotions – These lotions contain vitamins, minerals, herbs or hormones such as testosterone. But there's no evidence that these hormones nor other substances of this kind can increase penis size
  •  Exercises – Similar to body weights lifting and increasing of muscles size– some claim that the similar thing can be done in order to increase the size of penis.
Some of them are made to increase the length, some to increase the girth and some to increase the size of glans!

Definitely, two most common penis exercises programs are:
  • Jelqing penis enlargement exercises program
  • Kegel Contractions
However, there are more exercises programs such as: PC Ligament Stretch and Wally Wally Ups…

Jelqing penis enlargement exercises program

Jelqing method is about doing "milking" motions on the base of penis. It is supposed that these exercises will gradually increase length and circumference of the penis.
 
People who practice these exercises are hopping that this will force more blood into the spongy tissue of the penis called cavernous bodies!
People who invented this method of penis enlargement claim that this technique not only will stretch the tissues of the penis over time but it will also stretch the suspensory ligament of the penis, which could be crucial for the change of length! It should be done daily in sessions that should last at least 30 minutes.
Here are some instructions:
  1. first thing you should do is to have a warm bath
  2. use a lot of artificial lubricants such as Vaseline
  3. you should never do the exercises while your penis is in hard erection- this could be very important because vein damage could result if the penis is milked in its fully erect state
  4. squeeze the penis gently and start with “milking” motions
  5. when you fell the need to ejaculate-stop for a minute and then continue with milking
  6. after your exercise session, wrap a hot and wet towel around your penis tight too keep the blood in it as long as possible
Supposedly- men that were doing it for a year of continual milking at least 30 minutes a day increased the size of their penis in erection of 2-4 inches in length and 1-2 inches in girth.

Kegel contractions

These exercises are about contracting the anus and muscles that persons would use to stop the flow of urine while urinating! It should be done in series of 10 seconds, which is not easy at all! It could be done more easily if the man sits on the tennis ball placed between the scrotum and the anus. This will supposedly strengthen the pelvic muscles, which will also be helpful in controlling the premature ejaculation.

Wally Wally Ups

These are very characteristic and interesting exercises. They should be done while sitting on the edge of chair or something similar. The penis should be fully erected! Then, a small towel should be placed over the penis while person contracts the muscles to make the erection stronger! Therefore, it is a fight against the resistance of the towel. Series shouldn’t be longer then 3 to 5 seconds!

Surgical methods of penis enlargement

Increasing the length

The most typical surgical procedure to increase the length of penis is cutting the suspensory ligament that attaches the penis to the pubic bone. This procedure includes also moving skin from the abdomen to the penile shaft. It doesn’t really increase the size or length of penis but, when this ligament is cut, the penis may appear longer because it is more of it outside the body.

Increasing the girth

There is also an operation, which will make your penis look thicker. It involves suctioning fat from fleshy parts of the body such as abdomen and gluteus and injecting it into the penis.
 
These operations are very expensive. The most common operation of penis enlargement without any possible complications costs about $10000!
It is very important to point out that none of these surgical methods have been shown to be safe or effective. The American Urological Association, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons are all refusing to these operations and they have all issued policy statements against these cosmetic surgical procedures.

Do these penis enlargement techniques work?

Although many companies claim that, they found the “secret formula” for the penis enlargement – in most cases, this isn’t true! It is very important to point out once more that there is no scientifically proven method of increasing of penis size without any risk. Risks can be different: from losing sensation in peripheral nerves, impotence, scarring, and lesions to some permanent damages!
 
There are several possible complications such as infection, skin or sensory loss, excessive bleeding and loss of function.
